WARNING - Risk of re.
Install the clothes dryer according to
the manufacturer's instructions and
local codes.
Clothes dryer installation must be
performed by a quali ed installer.
Do not install a clothes dryer with
exible plastic venting materials.
If exible metal (foil type) duct is
installed, it must be of a speci c
type identi ed by the applience
manufacturer that is UL approved
for use with clothes dryers. Flexible
venting materials are known to
collapse, be easily crushed, and trap
lint. These conditions will obstruct
clothes dryer air ow and increase the
risk of re.
To reduce the risk of of severe
injury or death, follow all installation
instructions.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR
FUTURE REFERENCE.
WARNING
For proper ventilation, the machine
should not be installed behind a door.
The tumble dryer's toe kick ventilation
must not be blocked by a rug or the
like.
DRYER PLACEMENT
The dryer can be either free standing or installed
onto a washing machine.
The dryer emits heat. Therefore, do not place it in
a very small room, as the drying process may be
longer due to limited amount of available air.
Do not place the dryer in a room where
temperature can drop below 0 °C, as the machine
may not operate correctly at such low temperatures,
or freeze, which in turn can result in damage to the
machine.
Install the dryer in a room with adequate ventilation
and a temperature between 10 °C and 25 °C.
Do not place the dryer behind lockable or sliding
door, or door with a hinge on the opposite side of the
dryer door hinge. Install the dryer in such way that
the door can always be freely opened.
As this is a vented dryer, it does not have a
condensate tank. The handle has solely a decorative
purpose and it xed; it is not intended for opening. If
excessive force is applied, the handle may break.

AIR EXHAUST
The tumble dryer must only be operated when it
is correctly tted with exhaust duct.
Connecting the exhaust duct to the dryer
You will need to purchase a UL-CSA-approved
4" ridged metal exhaust duct. The dryer is delivered
with the stub pipe attached to the rear exhaust
outlet, though the exhaust duct can be attached to
either the left or the right exhaust outlet.
To connect the exhaust duct to the left or right side
outlet, follow the steps below:
1. Using a athead screw-driver, turn the exhaust
outlet cover you plan to use to the right or left to
align the tabs holding the cover in place.
2. Remove the exhaust outlet cover.
3. Remove the stub pipe from the rear exhaust outlet
and place it in the outlet you plan to use.
4. Use the exhaust outlet cover you removed from
the to cover the rear exhaust outlet.
Asko dryers have a "T-style" exhaust
vent that allows you to connect the duct
on the rear, on the left, or on the right
side

The duct must not be assembled with screws or
other fasteners that extend into the duct and catch
lint.
To connect the exhaust duct to the outlet, follow the
steps below:
Push the duct onto the stub pipe and secure it
with a clamp
After you push the dryer into place, check for
kinks in the duct.
Excessive duct length and too many bends can
impede drying performance. We recommend that
you cut o any excess exhaust duct and run the duct
with as few bends as possible. Make any necessary
bends as gentle as possible.
Maximum duct length of 60 feet. A maximum
of 4 elbows may be used, but 4 feet of duct must
subtracted from the total vent length for every 9
elbow used.
To reduce the risk of re, this appliance must
be exhausted OUTDOORS or the equivalent. Never
cover the end of the dryer stub or exhaust duct with
anything to catch lint, except for UL approved vent
basket.

Customer Care Center, 1-800-898-1879, www.askousa.com
Connecting to a ventilation duct
You will need a UL-CSA-approved, 4-inch ridged
metal exhaust duct. If a exible duct is used, it must
comply with the Outline for Clothes Dryer Transition
Duct. Subject 2158A and maximum length of 2.4 m
(8 feet).
The more bends and the longer the duct, the
less air will circulate through the machine, which
will impede drying performance. We recommend
that you cut o any excess exhaust duct and run the
duct with as few bends as possible. And make any
necessary bends as gentle as possible.
Maximum duct length of 60 feet. A maximum
of 4 elbows may be used, but 4 feet of duct must
subtracted from the total vent length for every 9
elbow used.
When installing in warm climates (77° F and
above) with high humidity levels, do not route the air
exhaust duct upwards.
Examples of installations
subtract 4 feet for
every 90° elbow
To connect the exhaust duct to a ventilation
outlet, follow the steps below:
1. Connect the exhaust duct to a ventilation exhaust
tting or to a discharge through the wall.
2. Secure the duct joint to the outlet stub on the
machine.
3. Run the duct with as few bends as possible to the
point of discharge.
Ventilation grill (not
supplied with machine)
This appliance shall not be exhausted into a
chimney, a wall, a ceiling, an attic, a crawl space
or a concealed space of a building. Only a rigid or
exible metal duct shall be used for exhausting. Only
a metal ventilation grill shall be used. If the duct is
taken to a wall outlet, a ventilation grill shall be tted
to prevent reverse ow of cold air. Fit the ventilation
grill to the outside of the wall.
Avoid:
very long exhausting systems
too many corners
• tight corners
These reduce e ciency and increase time and
energy consumption.
Risk of Fire.
A clothes dryer produces combustible lint. The dryer
must be connected to an exhaust to the outdoors.
Regularly inspect the outdoor exhaust opening and
remove any accumulation of lint around the outdoor
exhaust opening and in the surrounding area.

Electrical Connections
Read the Electrical requirements and grounding
instructions before connecting the tumble dryer.
Electric models of the dryer are manufactured for
a 3-wire connection system. The dryer frame is
grounded by a link to the neutral conductor on the
dryer terminal block. If local codes do not permit
grounding through the neutral, the grounding link
from the terminal block must be removed and a
separate ground wire must be used.
Only a 4-conductor cord shall be used when the
appliance is installed in a location where grounding
through the neutral conductor is prohibited.
Grounding through the neutral conductor is
prohibited for new branch-circuit installations,
mobile homes, recreational vehicles, and areas
where local codes prohibit grounding through the
neutral conductors. The grounding link on the dryer
must be removed for all 4-wire installations.
These Electrical Connection instructions provide for
installing the dryer in the following situations:
3-wire connection where local codes permit
grounding through the neutral. 3-wire connection
plus separate grounding connector where local
codes do not permit grounding through the neutral.
4-wire connection.
Each of the above connections can be made
with an approved power supply cord or by direct
wiring. Each connection instruction identi es
the appropriate Power Supply Cord and covers
requirements for direct wiring.
In Canada, the dryer is delivered ready- tted
with a four-prong plug intended for connection to a
single-phase supply.
